Writer George A Lawrence traveled from his English home to the United States to join the Confederate army. He was a supporter of the rebellious states, and wished to write about his experience as a soldier in their midst. Border And Bastille describes his attempt, his capture and time spent as a prisoner in the north, along with many sketches and descriptions of life both in the north and the south. Lawrence writes about his beliefs, his perspective, and how he believes the Civil War will finally end. This 1863 book is Real History – written at the time, by someone who lived it. You cannot get any closer to history. Less
